Introduction
Modern microelectronic component base lets to develop portable devices for wide and everyday using on the base of effects and phenomena which exist in medicine biology biochemistry etc Actual design of new devices and systems which is often used needs a lot of time material and human resources These expenses may be reduced with help of virtual methods of designing which are realized by means of virtual laboratories of computer-aided design (VLCAD) [Palagin 2009]
VLCAD is worth to be used on the stage of the requirements specification or EFT-stage because it gives the possibility enough fast to estimate the project realization certain characteristics and as a result expected benefit of its practical realization Using of VLCAD doesn`t need expensive actual tests and complicated equipments
Calculating of parameters
Devices what are developed are generally data acquisition and processing channels During designing and modeling such systems (channels) it is very important to make prior parameters calculating and evaluating These parameters include reliability precision performance cost etc
Having only model of future device it is possible enough quickly to make prior calculating of device parameters Also we have possibility to calculate several alternative variants of project and choose the optimal one according to user criteria (or predetermined criteria) For prior calculating we developed and filled databases which contain information about a large amount of microelectronic components and units Databases contain next main parameters 1) microelectronic component name 2) manufacturer of microelectronic component 3) group to which microelectronic component belongs 4) parameters which are intrinsic to some group of microelectronic components eg nominal currents voltages and powers interface types 5) manufacturing technique

6) reliability parameters 7) work temperature range 8) price 9) body type and conditions of installing 10) unique properties of microelectronic component
For prior calculating of each parameter it is developed program model Under program model we mean separate program group of programs or program complex which let by means of calculating sequence and graphical display of result to reproduce processes of object functioning under influence of as a rule random (or predetermined) factors The model purpose is to obtain quantitative or qualitative results Quantitative result is intended to predict some future values or explain some past values which characterized whole systems Qualitative results on the base of analysis let to detect some earlier unknown system characteristics
Generalized graphical display of stages sequence of prior calculating is shown on the fig 1 (portable device Floratest [Romanov 2007] is as example)
Fig 1 Sequence of stages of prior parameter calculating of developed devices
Calculating of reliability
Most devices are generally data acquisition and processing channels Such channels are per se systems without recovery elements of which are connected serially But meaning series connection doesnt always agree with physical series connection [Belyaev 1985] In this case we mean that failure of any system element causes failure of whole device or channel
Because of complexity of physical processes which cause failures impossibility to take account of all start conditions and random influences in present days it is accepted to consider a failure as random event in meaning that if we even know structure type of system and application conditions it is impossible to detect time and place of failure

As a rule prior evaluation of reliability parameters of separate microelectronic components is made by manufacturers on the base of results of highly accelerated stress tests [MIL-STD-883] Reliability parameters are shown in general form and grouped by types of manufacturing technique or large classes of functional-similar components (amplifiers converters processors controllers memory etc) Reliability level of modern microelectronic components is estimated by next characteristics
1) failure rate which measured in units FIT (failure in 109 hours of work)
2) mean time to failure Т0
Mean time to failure is estimated as function of failure rate in consideration of distribution law of failure probability Today there are many computing methods of reliability which are based on different distribution laws of failure probability [Azarskov 2004] We analyzed methods which are oriented on computer and instrumentation tools and adapted them for realization as program models
For prior calculating of reliability parameters of components devices and systems it is created program unit for calculating of reliability parameters This program unit has next features
1) calculating reliability parameters of separate microelectronic component or whole device
2) using different computing methods which are based different distribution laws of failure probability
3) selecting for calculating reliability parameters of device both component experimental data which are got by manufacturers with help of accelerated tests and component data which calculated by program unit
4) comparing of reliability parameters calculating results which were obtained by means of different computing methods
5) optimizing reliability index on the base of microelectronic components from VLCAD databases
6) containing fundamentals about reliability theory including computing sequence of reliability parameters by means of every computing method
The work of program unit for calculating reliability parameters of microelectronic components and whole devices is based on using two computing methods which are adapted by us for realization as program models
1) by using exponential law of distribution of failure probability (probabilistic model of failure distribution) which is used by many manufacturers of microelectronic components
2) by using DN-distribution of failure probability (probabilistic-physical model of failure distribution) which was proposed by Ukrainian scientists V Strelnikov and O Feduhin [Azarskov 2004 Streljnikov 2004]
Selected models of distribution have very important difference Probabilistic model allows only two state of system elements ndash operable and faulty Probabilistic-physical model considers continuous set of system element and system states with continuous time First model uses exponential law of distribution of failure probability the second one ndash DN-distribution
As was written above the exponential law of distribution of failure probability is used by many manufacturers of microelectronic components such as Analog Devices Inc [ADI 2004] Motorola [Motorola 1996] etc This law of distribution is recommended by Department of Defense of USA [MIL-STD-883] Exponential law is one-parametric function
According to this method failure rate is got from experimental data of manufacturer or calculated by formula

For calculating reliability parameters of microelectronic components by means of DN-distribution it was updated and adapted algorithm which is shown in [Azarskov 2004] It will be shown on the example the features of every method For this it is necessary to calculate mean time of test of every sample by formula

Computing algorithms of reliability parameters by means of these two methods are shown on fig 2 Program unit which is developed by authors is a part of VLCAD and operates on the base of these computing algorithms
Fig 2 Computing algorithms of reliability parameters with using of exponential law of distribution of failure probability (а) and DN-distribution of failure probability (b)
Using developed program unit it were obtained dependences of system operating reliability versus time For simplifying it is considered that system consists of same microelectronic components that are manufactured by means of same manufacturing technique (eg Bipolar lt 25 μm2) Should note that program unit allows to calculate reliability parameters of systems which consist of different quantities of microelectronic components manufactured by means of different manufacturing technique Dependences were obtained for 4 systems which consist of 1 thousand 10 thousand 20 thousand and 100 thousand microelectronic components respectively Confidence bounds equal 60 Dependences obtained by means of method on the base of exponential law of distribution of failure probability are shown on fig 3 and fig 4 Dependences obtained by means of method on the base of DN-distribution of failure probability are shown on fig 5

CB = Confidence bounds
It was analyzed systems which consist of from 1 thousand to 200 thousand microelectronic components Such range of components wasnt selected by accident On this range according to our analysis it is happened some changes in ratio of reliability parameters which were calculated by two methods
Fig 6 Dependence of duration of no-failure operation of systems which consist of different quantities of components versus quantities of system components
Having analyzed graphics (fig 3ndash6) and table 1 it is possible to make next conclusions For every confidence bound (in our case there are 60 and 90 ) there is such system components quantity below of which the method on basis of exponential law of distribution overstates the reliability parameters and above of which ndash puts too low them For confidence bound 60 this quantity equals approximately 60 thousand components and for confidence bound 90 ndash respectively 20 thousand The difference of results that are obtained by means of these two computing methods can be explained by method error [[Streljnikov 2004] The method error becomes apparent because exponential law of distribution is one-parametric function while DN-distribution is two-parametric function or in other words diffusive distribution
Our conclusion conforms very well with test and computing results which were fulfilled by Ukrainian scientists in the field of reliability theory [Streljnikov 2005] Should note that results in article were obtained for the first time thanks to using developed virtual (program) models of computer tools
Program models were used for calculating reliability parameters (eg time of no-failure operation) of portable device for express-diagnostic of plant state Floratest which is developed and created in the VM Glushkov Institute of Cybernetics of NAS of Ukraine

Conclusion
Presence of program unit for reliability parameters calculating as a part of VLCAD allows to fulfill prior calculating of reliability parameters of designed device and on the basis of obtained results make conclusion about correspondence of calculated parameters to beforehand specified ones Positive features of program unit is availability of two methods of reliability parameters calculating of separate microelectronic components and whole devices which are based on different models of distribution of failure probability (one- and two-parametric functions)
Program unit can be used not only for calculating of reliability parameters but in education process for gaining theoretical information from reliability theory
Program unit now is used in practical tasks for calculating reliability parameters of portable devices

It was analyzed systems which consist of from 1 thousand to 200 thousand microelectronic components Such range of components wasnt selected by accident On this range according to our analysis it is happened some changes in ratio of reliability parameters which were calculated by two methods
Fig 6 Dependence of duration of no-failure operation of systems which consist of different quantities of components versus quantities of system components
Having analyzed graphics (fig 3ndash6) and table 1 it is possible to make next conclusions For every confidence bound (in our case there are 60 and 90 ) there is such system components quantity below of which the method on basis of exponential law of distribution overstates the reliability parameters and above of which ndash puts too low them For confidence bound 60 this quantity equals approximately 60 thousand components and for confidence bound 90 ndash respectively 20 thousand The difference of results that are obtained by means of these two computing methods can be explained by method error [[Streljnikov 2004] The method error becomes apparent because exponential law of distribution is one-parametric function while DN-distribution is two-parametric function or in other words diffusive distribution
Our conclusion conforms very well with test and computing results which were fulfilled by Ukrainian scientists in the field of reliability theory [Streljnikov 2005] Should note that results in article were obtained for the first time thanks to using developed virtual (program) models of computer tools
Program models were used for calculating reliability parameters (eg time of no-failure operation) of portable device for express-diagnostic of plant state Floratest which is developed and created in the VM Glushkov Institute of Cybernetics of NAS of Ukraine

Abstract Today together with actual designing and tests it is often used virtual methods of designing which support prior calculations of parameters of the developed devices Such parameters include reliability For this purpose the virtual laboratory for computer-aided design which is developed during joint project by VM Glushkov Institute of Cybernetics of NAS of Ukraine and Institute of Mathematics and Informatics of BAS contains program unit for calculating reliability parameters of separate microelectronic components and whole devices The program unit work is based on two computing method the first one uses exponential distribution of failure probability and the second one ndash DN-distribution of failure probability Presence of theoretical materials computing methods description and other background materials lets to use this program unit not only for designing and scientific researches but also in education process
Keywords Virtual Laboratory Computer-Aided Design Reliability Calculation Distributed System
ACM Classification Keywords J6 Computer-Aided Engineering ndash Computer-Aided Design (CAD) K43 Organizational Impacts ndash Computer-Supported Collaborative Work
Introduction
Modern microelectronic component base lets to develop portable devices for wide and everyday using on the base of effects and phenomena which exist in medicine biology biochemistry etc Actual design of new devices and systems which is often used needs a lot of time material and human resources These expenses may be reduced with help of virtual methods of designing which are realized by means of virtual laboratories of computer-aided design (VLCAD) [Palagin 2009]
VLCAD is worth to be used on the stage of the requirements specification or EFT-stage because it gives the possibility enough fast to estimate the project realization certain characteristics and as a result expected benefit of its practical realization Using of VLCAD doesn`t need expensive actual tests and complicated equipments
Calculating of parameters
Devices what are developed are generally data acquisition and processing channels During designing and modeling such systems (channels) it is very important to make prior parameters calculating and evaluating These parameters include reliability precision performance cost etc
Having only model of future device it is possible enough quickly to make prior calculating of device parameters Also we have possibility to calculate several alternative variants of project and choose the optimal one according to user criteria (or predetermined criteria) For prior calculating we developed and filled databases which contain information about a large amount of microelectronic components and units Databases contain next main parameters 1) microelectronic component name 2) manufacturer of microelectronic component 3) group to which microelectronic component belongs 4) parameters which are intrinsic to some group of microelectronic components eg nominal currents voltages and powers interface types 5) manufacturing technique

6) reliability parameters 7) work temperature range 8) price 9) body type and conditions of installing 10) unique properties of microelectronic component
For prior calculating of each parameter it is developed program model Under program model we mean separate program group of programs or program complex which let by means of calculating sequence and graphical display of result to reproduce processes of object functioning under influence of as a rule random (or predetermined) factors The model purpose is to obtain quantitative or qualitative results Quantitative result is intended to predict some future values or explain some past values which characterized whole systems Qualitative results on the base of analysis let to detect some earlier unknown system characteristics
Generalized graphical display of stages sequence of prior calculating is shown on the fig 1 (portable device Floratest [Romanov 2007] is as example)
Fig 1 Sequence of stages of prior parameter calculating of developed devices
Calculating of reliability
Most devices are generally data acquisition and processing channels Such channels are per se systems without recovery elements of which are connected serially But meaning series connection doesnt always agree with physical series connection [Belyaev 1985] In this case we mean that failure of any system element causes failure of whole device or channel
Because of complexity of physical processes which cause failures impossibility to take account of all start conditions and random influences in present days it is accepted to consider a failure as random event in meaning that if we even know structure type of system and application conditions it is impossible to detect time and place of failure

As a rule prior evaluation of reliability parameters of separate microelectronic components is made by manufacturers on the base of results of highly accelerated stress tests [MIL-STD-883] Reliability parameters are shown in general form and grouped by types of manufacturing technique or large classes of functional-similar components (amplifiers converters processors controllers memory etc) Reliability level of modern microelectronic components is estimated by next characteristics
1) failure rate which measured in units FIT (failure in 109 hours of work)
2) mean time to failure Т0
Mean time to failure is estimated as function of failure rate in consideration of distribution law of failure probability Today there are many computing methods of reliability which are based on different distribution laws of failure probability [Azarskov 2004] We analyzed methods which are oriented on computer and instrumentation tools and adapted them for realization as program models
For prior calculating of reliability parameters of components devices and systems it is created program unit for calculating of reliability parameters This program unit has next features
1) calculating reliability parameters of separate microelectronic component or whole device
2) using different computing methods which are based different distribution laws of failure probability
3) selecting for calculating reliability parameters of device both component experimental data which are got by manufacturers with help of accelerated tests and component data which calculated by program unit
4) comparing of reliability parameters calculating results which were obtained by means of different computing methods
5) optimizing reliability index on the base of microelectronic components from VLCAD databases
6) containing fundamentals about reliability theory including computing sequence of reliability parameters by means of every computing method
The work of program unit for calculating reliability parameters of microelectronic components and whole devices is based on using two computing methods which are adapted by us for realization as program models
1) by using exponential law of distribution of failure probability (probabilistic model of failure distribution) which is used by many manufacturers of microelectronic components
2) by using DN-distribution of failure probability (probabilistic-physical model of failure distribution) which was proposed by Ukrainian scientists V Strelnikov and O Feduhin [Azarskov 2004 Streljnikov 2004]
Selected models of distribution have very important difference Probabilistic model allows only two state of system elements ndash operable and faulty Probabilistic-physical model considers continuous set of system element and system states with continuous time First model uses exponential law of distribution of failure probability the second one ndash DN-distribution
As was written above the exponential law of distribution of failure probability is used by many manufacturers of microelectronic components such as Analog Devices Inc [ADI 2004] Motorola [Motorola 1996] etc This law of distribution is recommended by Department of Defense of USA [MIL-STD-883] Exponential law is one-parametric function
According to this method failure rate is got from experimental data of manufacturer or calculated by formula

For calculating reliability parameters by means of second adapted method it is used DN-distribution of failure probability which is two-parametric function as opposed to exponential law In [Azarskov 2004 Streljnikov 2004] it is shown that by using DN-distribution it is possible to get result which are more close to real data
For calculating reliability parameters of microelectronic components by means of DN-distribution it was updated and adapted algorithm which is shown in [Azarskov 2004] It will be shown on the example the features of every method For this it is necessary to calculate mean time of test of every sample by formula

6) reliability parameters 7) work temperature range 8) price 9) body type and conditions of installing 10) unique properties of microelectronic component
For prior calculating of each parameter it is developed program model Under program model we mean separate program group of programs or program complex which let by means of calculating sequence and graphical display of result to reproduce processes of object functioning under influence of as a rule random (or predetermined) factors The model purpose is to obtain quantitative or qualitative results Quantitative result is intended to predict some future values or explain some past values which characterized whole systems Qualitative results on the base of analysis let to detect some earlier unknown system characteristics
Generalized graphical display of stages sequence of prior calculating is shown on the fig 1 (portable device Floratest [Romanov 2007] is as example)
Fig 1 Sequence of stages of prior parameter calculating of developed devices
Calculating of reliability
Most devices are generally data acquisition and processing channels Such channels are per se systems without recovery elements of which are connected serially But meaning series connection doesnt always agree with physical series connection [Belyaev 1985] In this case we mean that failure of any system element causes failure of whole device or channel
Because of complexity of physical processes which cause failures impossibility to take account of all start conditions and random influences in present days it is accepted to consider a failure as random event in meaning that if we even know structure type of system and application conditions it is impossible to detect time and place of failure

As a rule prior evaluation of reliability parameters of separate microelectronic components is made by manufacturers on the base of results of highly accelerated stress tests [MIL-STD-883] Reliability parameters are shown in general form and grouped by types of manufacturing technique or large classes of functional-similar components (amplifiers converters processors controllers memory etc) Reliability level of modern microelectronic components is estimated by next characteristics
1) failure rate which measured in units FIT (failure in 109 hours of work)
2) mean time to failure Т0
Mean time to failure is estimated as function of failure rate in consideration of distribution law of failure probability Today there are many computing methods of reliability which are based on different distribution laws of failure probability [Azarskov 2004] We analyzed methods which are oriented on computer and instrumentation tools and adapted them for realization as program models
For prior calculating of reliability parameters of components devices and systems it is created program unit for calculating of reliability parameters This program unit has next features
1) calculating reliability parameters of separate microelectronic component or whole device
2) using different computing methods which are based different distribution laws of failure probability
3) selecting for calculating reliability parameters of device both component experimental data which are got by manufacturers with help of accelerated tests and component data which calculated by program unit
4) comparing of reliability parameters calculating results which were obtained by means of different computing methods
5) optimizing reliability index on the base of microelectronic components from VLCAD databases
6) containing fundamentals about reliability theory including computing sequence of reliability parameters by means of every computing method
The work of program unit for calculating reliability parameters of microelectronic components and whole devices is based on using two computing methods which are adapted by us for realization as program models
1) by using exponential law of distribution of failure probability (probabilistic model of failure distribution) which is used by many manufacturers of microelectronic components
2) by using DN-distribution of failure probability (probabilistic-physical model of failure distribution) which was proposed by Ukrainian scientists V Strelnikov and O Feduhin [Azarskov 2004 Streljnikov 2004]
Selected models of distribution have very important difference Probabilistic model allows only two state of system elements ndash operable and faulty Probabilistic-physical model considers continuous set of system element and system states with continuous time First model uses exponential law of distribution of failure probability the second one ndash DN-distribution
As was written above the exponential law of distribution of failure probability is used by many manufacturers of microelectronic components such as Analog Devices Inc [ADI 2004] Motorola [Motorola 1996] etc This law of distribution is recommended by Department of Defense of USA [MIL-STD-883] Exponential law is one-parametric function
According to this method failure rate is got from experimental data of manufacturer or calculated by formula

For calculating reliability parameters of microelectronic components by means of DN-distribution it was updated and adapted algorithm which is shown in [Azarskov 2004] It will be shown on the example the features of every method For this it is necessary to calculate mean time of test of every sample by formula

Using developed program unit it were obtained dependences of system operating reliability versus time For simplifying it is considered that system consists of same microelectronic components that are manufactured by means of same manufacturing technique (eg Bipolar lt 25 μm2) Should note that program unit allows to calculate reliability parameters of systems which consist of different quantities of microelectronic components manufactured by means of different manufacturing technique Dependences were obtained for 4 systems which consist of 1 thousand 10 thousand 20 thousand and 100 thousand microelectronic components respectively Confidence bounds equal 60 Dependences obtained by means of method on the base of exponential law of distribution of failure probability are shown on fig 3 and fig 4 Dependences obtained by means of method on the base of DN-distribution of failure probability are shown on fig 5

For calculating reliability parameters by means of second adapted method it is used DN-distribution of failure probability which is two-parametric function as opposed to exponential law In [Azarskov 2004 Streljnikov 2004] it is shown that by using DN-distribution it is possible to get result which are more close to real data
For calculating reliability parameters of microelectronic components by means of DN-distribution it was updated and adapted algorithm which is shown in [Azarskov 2004] It will be shown on the example the features of every method For this it is necessary to calculate mean time of test of every sample by formula

Computing algorithms of reliability parameters by means of these two methods are shown on fig 2 Program unit which is developed by authors is a part of VLCAD and operates on the base of these computing algorithms
Fig 2 Computing algorithms of reliability parameters with using of exponential law of distribution of failure probability (а) and DN-distribution of failure probability (b)
Using developed program unit it were obtained dependences of system operating reliability versus time For simplifying it is considered that system consists of same microelectronic components that are manufactured by means of same manufacturing technique (eg Bipolar lt 25 μm2) Should note that program unit allows to calculate reliability parameters of systems which consist of different quantities of microelectronic components manufactured by means of different manufacturing technique Dependences were obtained for 4 systems which consist of 1 thousand 10 thousand 20 thousand and 100 thousand microelectronic components respectively Confidence bounds equal 60 Dependences obtained by means of method on the base of exponential law of distribution of failure probability are shown on fig 3 and fig 4 Dependences obtained by means of method on the base of DN-distribution of failure probability are shown on fig 5

It was analyzed systems which consist of from 1 thousand to 200 thousand microelectronic components Such range of components wasnt selected by accident On this range according to our analysis it is happened some changes in ratio of reliability parameters which were calculated by two methods
Fig 6 Dependence of duration of no-failure operation of systems which consist of different quantities of components versus quantities of system components
Having analyzed graphics (fig 3ndash6) and table 1 it is possible to make next conclusions For every confidence bound (in our case there are 60 and 90 ) there is such system components quantity below of which the method on basis of exponential law of distribution overstates the reliability parameters and above of which ndash puts too low them For confidence bound 60 this quantity equals approximately 60 thousand components and for confidence bound 90 ndash respectively 20 thousand The difference of results that are obtained by means of these two computing methods can be explained by method error [[Streljnikov 2004] The method error becomes apparent because exponential law of distribution is one-parametric function while DN-distribution is two-parametric function or in other words diffusive distribution
Our conclusion conforms very well with test and computing results which were fulfilled by Ukrainian scientists in the field of reliability theory [Streljnikov 2005] Should note that results in article were obtained for the first time thanks to using developed virtual (program) models of computer tools
Program models were used for calculating reliability parameters (eg time of no-failure operation) of portable device for express-diagnostic of plant state Floratest which is developed and created in the VM Glushkov Institute of Cybernetics of NAS of Ukraine

Conclusion
Presence of program unit for reliability parameters calculating as a part of VLCAD allows to fulfill prior calculating of reliability parameters of designed device and on the basis of obtained results make conclusion about correspondence of calculated parameters to beforehand specified ones Positive features of program unit is availability of two methods of reliability parameters calculating of separate microelectronic components and whole devices which are based on different models of distribution of failure probability (one- and two-parametric functions)
Program unit can be used not only for calculating of reliability parameters but in education process for gaining theoretical information from reliability theory

CB = Confidence bounds
It was analyzed systems which consist of from 1 thousand to 200 thousand microelectronic components Such range of components wasnt selected by accident On this range according to our analysis it is happened some changes in ratio of reliability parameters which were calculated by two methods
Fig 6 Dependence of duration of no-failure operation of systems which consist of different quantities of components versus quantities of system components
Having analyzed graphics (fig 3ndash6) and table 1 it is possible to make next conclusions For every confidence bound (in our case there are 60 and 90 ) there is such system components quantity below of which the method on basis of exponential law of distribution overstates the reliability parameters and above of which ndash puts too low them For confidence bound 60 this quantity equals approximately 60 thousand components and for confidence bound 90 ndash respectively 20 thousand The difference of results that are obtained by means of these two computing methods can be explained by method error [[Streljnikov 2004] The method error becomes apparent because exponential law of distribution is one-parametric function while DN-distribution is two-parametric function or in other words diffusive distribution
Our conclusion conforms very well with test and computing results which were fulfilled by Ukrainian scientists in the field of reliability theory [Streljnikov 2005] Should note that results in article were obtained for the first time thanks to using developed virtual (program) models of computer tools
Program models were used for calculating reliability parameters (eg time of no-failure operation) of portable device for express-diagnostic of plant state Floratest which is developed and created in the VM Glushkov Institute of Cybernetics of NAS of Ukraine

Conclusion
Presence of program unit for reliability parameters calculating as a part of VLCAD allows to fulfill prior calculating of reliability parameters of designed device and on the basis of obtained results make conclusion about correspondence of calculated parameters to beforehand specified ones Positive features of program unit is availability of two methods of reliability parameters calculating of separate microelectronic components and whole devices which are based on different models of distribution of failure probability (one- and two-parametric functions)
Program unit can be used not only for calculating of reliability parameters but in education process for gaining theoretical information from reliability theory
Program unit now is used in practical tasks for calculating reliability parameters of portable devices
